Although they have a tricky and slightly complicated name to spell and remember, as Andy said: “Once you get it, you’ll never forget it.” And he’s probably right.

Despite being at the start of what promises to be a great career, Twen2y 4 Se7en have already been compared to the Beach Boys.

“People say that because we can do a cappellas and three- and four-part harmonies,” said Radon. “We want to prove to people that we do have ability and can actually sing and that we are not another manufactured band.”

“Whenever we go into radio stations and are asked to sing live,” said Thom, “people are always surprised by how good we sound.”

“Sometimes their jaw drops to the floor,” added Andy. Twen2y 4 Se7en are a tight group of friends. Andy and Niall are brothers from Surrey and Thom is an old family friend.

Niall wrote the band’s first single Patiently Waiting, which was released in October last year. He was at Newcastle University before deferring after his first year to dedicate more time to the band.

Their new single, Hide, a rock ballad, is released early next month.

“It’s an atypical boy band song, fresh and different,” said Radon.

“The song was written by Jess Cates, the guy who wrote for the winner of the American Pop Idol. Hide is also going to be used as the French Pop Idol’s first song.”

The video for Hide also promises to be something out of the ordinary. It is being filmed at a Tunbridge Wells house formerly owned by rock legends Led Zeppelin.

“There will probably be some sexy male bodies on show and some special effects, maybe even a puma or an eagle,” said Andy.

The video for their first single Patiently Waiting was filmed in Ibiza. Although filming this and the video for another track, Footdown, took up a lot of time, the lads still managed to take in a bit of the Balearic nightlife.

Their hectic schedule of tour dates has seen them playing to thousands of people all over the country, from London, to Birmingham, from Chelmsford to Swansea.

Although touring and filming can be tough, driving between gigs gives them all a chance to catch up on some much needed sleep.

“It is tiring, but I am having an awesome time. There’s some hard graft involved but it’s worth it because we know we are slowly climbing the ladder,” said Thom.

All of Twen2y 4 Sev7en are realistic about the possibility of overnight success.

“You have got to make connections and develop a fan base and all these things take time,” said Radon.

“We did a gig in Swansea with Lemar (from Fame Academy) in early November and he was gigging for ten years before he ‘made it’. We have only been at this for four months. So we are really pleased with our progress so far,” said Andy.

If they could perform with anyone the band’s top choices would include JC Casez from NSYNC and Girls Aloud and they would have loved to do a gig with Elvis Presley.

Although they love all the gigs they have done, their favourite was at Tall Trees in Middlesbrough

“It’s an amazing venue. There were about 50 hired limos parked outside, and then suddenly from nowhere a whole stream of girls appeared,” said Thom.

“The gigs we have done at co-ed and girls schools have also been great, because there is no barrier between you and your fans. There are people right at the front of the stage,” he continued.

“And we always stay behind for ages afterwards signing stuff for the kids,” said Andy.

As well as being acoustically impressive, they are also all extremely competent sportsmen. Thom played in the English Under-19 rugby team. Andy, ran for his county in the 400 and 800 metres and also swam in the national team.

Niall plays golf and has a handicap of four and Radon has played county rugby. He is also a trained grade eight pianist.

Niall is also learning the guitar and Andy is a really keen drummer.

For anyone else thinking about following a pop career Thom had this advice: “Always be yourself and try to enjoy it and have belief in yourself and your ability.

“Don’t get disheartened. It will all kick off and you will make it.”

Andy added: “And always try to get the crowd going. You should see Niall, he’s like an animal on stage. He is always out there giving 110 per cent and it really works.”

As for the band’s future ambitions, they are aiming big and hope that four albums, cracking the States and embarking on a British, European and Pan-Asian tour, are not totally out of their vocal reach.
